About Council #9053

Worthy Brothers and friends,

As we enter the third week of Lent let us continue our individual Lenten activities and take advantage of what is being offered at Saint Luke’s (other churches have similar activities). Please remember all the Brothers and Lady Knights and their families who are in need of our prayers. Maybe a Divine Mercy Chaplet asking God’s mercy for those who are sick, if you have time.

Saint Lukes Lenten opportunities:

There has been a change to our website. We will no longer post or store past versions of the Knight Times. I was notified of a potential security concern of the information that we post: names, phone numbers, birthdays, and other sensitive information. A small committee was formed to review the issue, and it was agreed to remove the K’Times. Each of us receives an email copy to read. We will begin posting the Calendars, three months at a time, shortly. The three-month calendar will be updated when necessary and the date the updates were made will be listed.

I request each of you read this paragraph twice. We need an assistant/deputy treasurer for the Council. Each of you in your life up to now have a wealth of experience in many areas. Maybe you worked in finance, managed a budget, studied or reviewed budgets, written checks, and managed bank accounts. You did all these things at home over the course of your life. Like most financial matters each organization, and home, have certain ways of doing things and managing money. The Council is no different. You don’t have to have years of experience in the Knights, new guys bring new ideas. If for any reason Tom Foglesong was unable to do the job, it would be a VERY steep learning curve for the person who would take it over. That is why we need a deputy. A computer will be provided, a book on working “QuickBooks online” and some help from Tom. Pray about it. Maybe this is what God believes you could do. Remember God will not ask more than you can do. Questions, Please call me.
